One of the icons of the French car industry appeared in 1934 to save the brand with the chevron from economic bankruptcy. The car in question carries an innovation that will revolutionize the future industry: a mode of transmission to the front wheels. Very quickly, the name "Traction" appeared, and this model became the myth and success that we all know. Its production stopped in 1957, leaving room for more contemporary but equally mythical models.

The Traction we are presenting is an 11 BL version, launched on January 7, 1954. It has a black paint job that was redone several years ago. The interior still has its original upholstery. Traces of corrosion can be seen on the body and chassis. Mechanically, the engine needs to be restarted, but it is not blocked. This car is thus an interesting restoration project.
